The week of "getting back to usual" continues along. Of course, we'll get back off schedule a little, since it's a 3-day weekend here in the States. But still, good to be on schedule while you can. But, seeing as we're getting ready for a 3-day weekend, that means we should be fully-powered up on gaming stories.

Today on the platter we have: New Skull Wound Markers Available From Kromlech, Last days for bargain deal at EZPainter, Chibi Giants & Swarms Fantasy RPG Miniatures Up On Kickstarter, Acheson Creations Releases Short-Faced Bear Mini, and Final Week For Archmage Origins Up On Kickstarter.

The week rolls along, just as the thunder outside rolls along.I have to say, obviously I hope that everyone stays safe and there's no property damage, but at the same time, the Midwesterner in me is going, "Squeee! Thunderstorms! Yay!"I miss the storms that'd roll through Kansas and Missouri back when I lived there.

Anyway, as long as lightning doesn't knock out the power or internet, let's get you a platter full of bite-sized gaming stories.

Today we have: Final Hours for Frazetta Miniatures on Kickstarter, The Drowned Earth comes to Kickstarter April 16th, New Miniatures For Lance & Laser Available, New Sizes of Crystal Fields Bases Available From Tabletop-Art, EZPainter April Special Happening Now, Legends of the Colosseum 28mm Miniatures Up On Kickstarter, and New Legionary Heavy Heat-Ray From Kromlech.

So you've got a bunch of Flames of War, Bolt Action, or some other WWII game's miniatures sitting around. You've been meaning to get them painted, but you've never gotten around to it. Well, to help out, EZPainter is having a sale on all WWII commissions for the next couple days.

Who doesn't love to celebrate a birthday? ... besides Jehovah's Witnesses? Well, the folks over at EZ Painter love to celebrate a birthday. Their lead painter, Arthur, is having a birthday, but it's you that's getting the gifts (and he's hopefully getting a bunch of work), since they're having a big sale.

With my busy schedule, I can't even remember the last time I thought to myself, "yeah, I've got several hours here where I can just paint." Thankfully, there are services out there that can help by painting your figures for you. One such is EZPainter and they're running a special on WWII figures for the month of May.

Granny Grating Armies (or GGA to their friends) fell short of their goal the first time around on Kickstarter. But they didn't let that keep them down. They retooled, re-imagined, reconfigured, and have relaunched their campaign. This time they're seeing much more success, having made it over their goal already.

Ok, everyone, we're progressing along at a nice, steady pace through the week. We can keep this up. We can manage to continue this direction and speed and the weekend will be here before we know it. But we should stock up on energy. A great way to do that is via some bite-sized gaming stories. Good thing that's just what we have for you now.

Today's snippets include: New Tokens and Scoreboard Available From Advanced Deployment, Guild Ball Bag Standard Load Out Available From Battle Foam, Rebel Minis Releases 28mm Unarmed Civilians, Brigade Models Release New 15mm vehicles, Bombshell Miniatures launches KritterKins Kickstarter, Final Days For The Vampire, the Elf and the Cthulhu On Kickstarter, and Last three days for 25% off with intro deal At EZPainter.

We once more find ourselves perched on the precipice of the weekend. We've been working all week and soon it will be time to kick back and relax for a couple days. Of course, I'm sure for many of you, "kick back and relax" means "get in all the gaming action you can!!!" which is cool, too.

We should stock up on bite-size gaming stories.

Today's serving includes: New Centurion Banner From Puppets War, Trump This Card Game Coming To Kickstarter April 19th, Bizaza Guard - Ancient Frog People from the Future launches on Kickstarter, Khurasan releases 15mm Raug alien soldiers, Thomarillion released new items, Kromlech New Release: Orc Sparkk Energy Cannon, Last chance to Get 25% off with EZPainter Intro Deal: Ends May 1st, Battle Valor Games 15mm Fantasy Releases 4/15/2016, and New Cataphractii Shoulder Pads From Forge World.

A lot of us have a lot of figures sitting around that we really want to get painted, but we just can't seem to find the time for it. Or we have the time, but we can't get ourselves motivated to actually do the painting. Thankfully, there's people out there that will happily paint your figures for you. One such is EZPainter and they're having a special sale.

Time ever-marches onward! Well... as far as we know, anyway. I guess time could stop for a while and if we were stopped along with it, we'd never really know it'd happened. Unless you were some sort of 4th dimensional being like in Slaughterhouse Five or something, we'd never realize it.Ok, well, this took a really quick turn to the metaphysical. Not really intended, but there we are, then. Let's just move on to today's heaping helping of bite-sized stories before I begin to discuss other laws of physics of which I have a tenuous knowledge grasp on, at best.

Raise your hand if you got some new models in the past month or so.*watches lots of hands go up*Keep your hand up if you know, 100%, that you're going to have plenty of time to get all those minis painted in the near future?*watches most of the hands go down*Just as I suspected. Thankfully, EZPainter is here to help.

We've made it to another Wednesday. The previous weekend is as far away as the next one is. Some comment about camels.Hopefully the week has been treating you well.

Anyway, we've got some of those bite-sized stories to give you. In this installment there's: Angry Mojo Games opens up Webshop, Brigade Models Releases New British Spaceships, Menhir Games posts new renders for KStarter stretch goals, Beasties & Bygones posts Jester Class preview, Quantum Gothic re-releases Quantum Cannon and Sentry-platform twin gun systems/rocket v1, some more sessions of The Fiver from The Meeple Mechanic, New Army Men Combat Update from One Page Rules, Acheson Creations Releases new Skull Tower, 15mm Hades Ghost Team has been released by ClearHorizon Miniatures, Manorhouse Workshop Update #20 Modular Underground Project, and EZPainter Price adjustments.

Though it's raining here in Atlanta on this Friday the 13th, we're not letting it get us down. GAMA is next week, as well as AdeptiCon. So there's plenty to be looking forward to.

And, of course, there's gaming this weekend. For me, there'll be D&D. What do you have in store?

In this installment of Snippets, we have: More installments of The Fiver from The Meeple Mechanic, Final Week and New Pledge Levels for Fujian Trader, Tabletop-Art Previews Upcoming 32mm Bases, New 10mm modular building range for DZC available from War Mage Games, Oddzial Osmy’s 3mm February Releases Arrive at PicoArmor, New Maori Pa Terrain from Catalyst Creative, Legendary Metal Coins Now Live On Kickstarter, LaserCutCard Stacked Containers Plus Bundle Offer, New Dead Man's Hand 4Ground pre-painted buildings and accessories, and EZPainter Kickstarter updates and Rates news.

EZPainter has launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund a new set of tutorial painting videos to help you get the results you want for your minis. The series will be on YouTube, so pledge levels get you painted miniatures via EZPainter, himself. The campaign will be up for the next 26 days.

EZpainter has a sale going on for their painting services for the month of February. Got an army you're not wanting to paint? Or feel that you want it painted, but don't think your skills are quite up for it? Try out EZpainter. Leave the worry about caffeine hands to someone else.
